Tattooed Luna

Chapter 0440 “Colt, you have been staring at that screen for two weeks now.” Penny placed her hands on my shoulders. It has been two weeks since we visited Vin. For two weeks, my eyes felt like they haven't left the tracking screen.

Gunther and Kara have been stationary at an abandoned houses in the middle of the woods. Never once leaving there.

There was no way of us knowing if Vin was coming and going and without just showing up, we had to act like we had no idea where they were at. It was already risky that we showed up at the castle.

“I know. I'm not sure what I am looking for but I can’t seem to look away.”

“Has there been any word on I movement with the auctions?” Penny asked. She waddled over to the sofa and sat down. Her belly was really rounding out. She was at the point in her pregnancy that women with one baby felt like at 40 weeks. Still, she was being a trouper. Since her blood pressure was staying within the normal range, she has been able to keep doing whatever she wants.

However, at the end of the day, her ankles are pretty swollen. €5 “Swhispers but nothing that was concrete. Zac claims he is healed and ready to go back out there. At this point, I don’t think that is a good idea.

He has used up most of his lives and I might not be there a third tto save his ass.” Sighing, I turned off the tracker and leaned back in my chair.

“I doubt you are going to stop him, either way.” Penny was rubbing her belly with both hands.

“The Halloween party is getting closer.

Are we ready for it?” I asked, changing the subject as that one has been the center of our lives.

“Oh yeah. We are good to go. Food will be arriving soon and all the decorations arrived yesterday.” Penny's face lit up.

“Decide on a costume?” “I think I am going to go as the Moon Goddess. That will be simple, comfortable and easy to put together.” “Good.”

Bp TAA dad “What about you?” Penny looked atwith a raised eyebrow.

“Do you have something in mind you wantto go as?” I asked, trying to read her expression.

“Father time.” Not that it sounded appealing but I didn’t care enough to go against whatever she wanted. “Sure, if that is what you wantto go as.” “You don’t have to.” Penny frowned at me.

“T just don’t want to wear a beard like that.” If I remembered correctly, he had a long gray beard with robes. I was okay with the robes and a large clock hanging down my neck but I'll drawl the line at the beard.” “Ha!” Penny laughed as the door

opened and Alec walked in.

“Did I interrupt?” He looked at Penny with a little amusement. ig We never really told Penny what danger I was in. Obviously, we told her what happened and everything but left out the sheer danger I put myself into.

Not even mentioning what I asked of Alec. That will be an unspoken thing that Alec will take to his grave.

“No. Colt doesn’t want to wear a long gray beard for Halloween.” Alec looked at me. “Would you want to wear it?” I asked in self defense.

“Shit. Kristen wants to dress up as a disco ball and wantsto dress up in 70’s attire. Afro and all.” “Suddenly, a beard doesn’t sound bad at all.” I said, smirking at his expense.

“I said no fro but the rest was fine.” He took a seat and sighed. Ee “I’m sure she already bought you the costand forgot to tell you.” I placed air quotes around forgot and Alec nodded in response. @ “We just knew you boys were busy and we walked to make sure you had an option. That way, if you didn’t have tto find one before the party, we had you covered.” Penny said as she struggled to stand up. Alec jumped up before I could and gave her a hand.

“Thank you.” “Where are you going?” I asked.

“Lay down. The Chinese I had for lunch is makingswell. I am ready to go hand let you boys talk shop.”

“Do you need a ride or do you have someone to drive you?” I asked.

“I’m good. I have the golf cart and Tl be fine. I'm hoping the belly support band I bought cin the mail.” Penny walked over to the door.

“Be safe. Letknow when you get home.” I said, watching her move. It was such a bitter sweet thing. Part offelt sorry for her. Her body was changing before our eyes, the swelling and constant peeing was taking a toll on her. However, she never complained. On the other side, I felt so much love and gratitude towards her for carrying my children. Not just one but three babies. She looked sexy doing it. As long as her blood pressure stayed down, we were going to make it decently far.

“Will do! Bye!” Penny waved as she walked out and shut the door.

“She looks uncomfortable.” Alec said as soon as he was sure she was out of ear shot.

“How’s Ice?” I asked.

“She is loving being pregnant. Other than no drinking, she has really felt good and loves showing off her bump.

The shop is going great, too.” Alec shrugged as he placed spapers on my desk.

“What's this?” “T caught more whispering of another event coming up. They aren’t selling girls. I'm not actually sure what they are selling but word is all the major players will be there.” “If Vin wanted to put sfeelers out

and see who is on his side still, he might be there.” I started thinking out loud.

“We can really play this one of two ways.”
